★Invited Papers

*Brooks Hanson1 (1.American Geophysical Union)

Forming a borderless world of geoscience is critical for benefiting humanity and forming a vibrant sustainable future. Earth, environmental, and space science are critical for many societal challenges and for guiding decisions on these issues. AGU has recently developed a new strategic plan that includes recognition of the need for deeper engagement with society and the public for a sustainable future and expanded partnerships worldwide. We’ll discuss the implications for scientific societies and the broader scientific community.
